ICFAI Business School Mumbai Powai Answered Questions

The average package of my college ranges from Rs 5.5 lakhs to Rs 6.5 lakhs. Even if you are an average student doesn't matter, because average students are sometimes proven to have a good placement record . Hope your percentage is 60% and above in SSC, HSC and Graduation. If not then at least it is needed to be above 50% for getting admission in the Mumbai campus. Placements in MBA colleges are done solely on the basis of the skills a candidate has in him or her and secondly on the academic records which a recruiter sees while hiring candidates for the jobs. Even I was an average student during my school and junior college days. You just need to show your interest and nothing else in doing MBA, rest you will make your own way.

It is not compulsory to have AICTE certification for the college because when you are joining a corporate world they look for MBA graduates and it doesn't matter for the companies whether the institution is AICTE approved or not . Only thing which matters most to the companies is that the college's brand value and the potential a student has in him or her as a MBA personnel. Many AICTE approved institutes sometimes are not able to deliver potential students and proper placements for the companies and students as well. Joining a private company doesn't require AICTE certification but joining a government job definitely requires AICTE certification. Even if you want to pursue PHD in future, it will require AICTE certification. But for joining a private company or a corporate entity AICTE certification is not needed.

The sectional cut off varies every year based on the percentile score decided by the institute. There are high chances of you getting admission as college always want those students who are keen or enthusiastic in doing management program. You just need to apply through www.ibsindia.org or visit IBS Mumbai - Hiranandani knowledge park, near Dr. LH Hiranandani Hospital, Powai and fill in the required application form for admission then you will be called for Group discussion and Personal Interview round either to IBS Mumbai or IBS Hyderabad and based on your performance in GDPI and scores based on your SSC, HSC & Graduation, you will be invited for admissions in IBS Mumbai.

Yes, I will definitely recommend IBS Mumbai to people who are keen to join a B School because I have seen the placement records of college. It is fantastic and majority of the candidates are happy with the placement cell department of the college. Every candidate's ultimate aim is to get good placements and at least with an average package. Secondly the studies and the curriculum of the college is also unique as compared to other B schools. No other B school provides 3 and half months internship except for IBS. IBS focuses on the overall development of an individual personally and more widely professionally.

The best quality of IBS is that it even has case study evaluation as a part of the curriculum, other than just the normal syllabus. If you get admission there then your future would be definitely secured provided that you will work hard in academics. If you are a hard working person and want to make a career with either Finance, Marketing or HR then I think so you will definitely get placed in a good company. As I said earlier that big corporate and Giants like L & T , ITC Hotels, Nestle, Berger Paints, Asian Paints , TCS , JP Morgan Chase, Deloitte, Crisil, ICICI Bank and Securities, Kotak Bank and Securities visit every year.
